Comments on "Distributed event-triggered control of multi-agent systems with combinational measurements"

Abstract

This note points out some incorrect statements in Fan et al. (2013) concerning the triggering behavior of the event-triggered consensus algorithm for multi-agent systems. We show that, in contrast to the claims in Fan et al. (2013), the two event-based consensus algorithms proposed in Fan et al. (2013) cannot guarantee a Zeno-free triggering for the multi-agent system. A remedy is also suggested to achieve a truly Zeno-free event-triggered consensus for multi-agent systems. In this note we follow the same notations as in Fan et al. (2013). Show more
